Are your parents still alive?

Mom died in 1999, Her mom died in 1963, her dad in 1978. Dad passed in 2005, his mom in 1969, his dad sometime before I was born.

I’m 51.

I’m 47. My mother is alive, and is 76. My father died in 2007, aged 79.

My mother died when I was 32, and my father the following year. Mom was 70 and Dad was 73.

  1. Mom and stepdad are still around. Dad passed away last month.
  1. Both of my parents are living. But they were only 20 and a half and just-turned-27 (literally the day before) when I was born, so I think that’s to be expected.
  1. We lost Daddy in March of last year.

I’m 29 and my father is still alive. My mother died in 2008.

I’m forty. My father died years ago.

My mother died on Wednesday which is why I haven’t posted since then. Her estate is a mess and she was a hoarder. There has barely been time to process that she is gone, there is just so much to do.

She had just turned sixty nine.

Biological mom - alive, as far as I know
Biological dad - dead
Adopted mom - dead
Adopted dad - alive

I’m 35.

I’m 49. My parents are both still alive, though retired many years ago. My dad turns 80 later this year and is still very active, though he is just starting to slow down.

Lost my father to stomach cancer 21 years ago. He was 64.
My mother has been in Intensive care for the past three weeks, with legionella. They gave her a trach to attach the ventillator last Wednesday. At 75, any pneumonia is serious. Just found out she has picked up MRSA while in there. I may need to change my poll answer soon.

Both parents are still alive.
Dad will be 77 come December and is still pretty active. (Although he’s starting to show early signs of Alzheimer’s.)
Mom turned 73 in July, and is still very active.
I’ll be 51, come early October.
I’m the oldest of four boys, brother #2 passed away in '96. (He was 16 months younger than me.)
#3 is 46 and still alive.
#4 (the youngest) is 42 and still alive.

Both still alive at 74 and 72, and both reasonably active and healthy.

I’m 54, the oldest of nine. Given our family medical history, my parent’s lack of vices, and my non-lack of vices, I expect both of them to outlive me.

I’m 46. Both of my parents are still alive:

  • My father will be 78 in a couple of months. He’s slowing down a bit, and I see some early signs of mental impairment (and he had a mild stroke earlier this year), but he’s in far better shape than his friends who are around his age, many of whom are in wheelchairs or assisted-living facilities. He’s been retired for about 7 years (he had been a professor with the University of Wisconsin Extension), but now works part-time as a driver for a medical van (taking people 20 years his junior to kidney dialysis).

  • My mother is 71. She’s had health issues over the years (cancer, Lyme disease, arthritis), but is still very sharp, and still works close to full time, at a department store.

Both died some years ago; first my mother, then my father.

I’m 50. Dad was 37 and Mom was 23 when I was born. Dad died at 71. G’parents died at ~81, 85-ish, ~92, and ~103 years old.

My daddy died just a few weeks before I turned 40 (2 yrs ago). He was 69. Cancer. My mom is 65 and doing great.

My dad died at the age of 51. My mother died at the age of 83. I’m 85 and have lived longer than either of them lived.

I’m 57 (at least for a few more weeks). My father died almost 20 years ago. I can’t believe how quickly the time has gone. Mum died in 1997. Both were in their sixties, so I reckon I should start partying now while I’ve still got time.

I was born when Mom was 40 and Dad was two months shy of his 43rd.
